Suzanne’s comments from the Nothing But Reading Challenges group.

@CB - For The Man with the Golden Torc: can you give us the phrase with location of "CAVE in text" and also where a character uses a sword please?

She's Back!
Echidna



Echidna aka the Mother of Monsters has been spotted on your lands. Hard to kill and looking for some quality "me time".

To vanquish this monster you must:
1.) Read a book between 350 and 450 pages (inclusive).
2.) Read a book with CAVE in text.
3.) Read a book where a character uses a sword.
4.) Author name (first and last) contain all the letters in HERA
5.) Read a book where a MC is a mother

Thank you both for looking! That's wonderful The Wolf in the Whale also works for lost!

And Renata, it sounds like The Shadow Rising will be a fantastic candidate if we get this monster again.

So I've been able to look at kindle versions of Ship of Magic and Horseman and Close to Home (the finished books that were labelled R4) and I'm not seeing hard headed or bull headed in them. But I may have missed something. I think we were possibly interpreting that task as the meaning of those terms vs. actually finding the phrase.

I have not looked at Kulti - Renata, does it have the actual phrase (or close to) hard-headed or bull-headed?

Anyway - everyone check your books please :)

Note: Here is a warning they put in the captains group:
Whilst we welcome creativity in tasks, please note that for tasks that have phrases in quotes (e.g. the Minotaur task 4, a character described as "hard-headed" or "bull-headed") we expect to see that phrase in the text (slight variations acceptable - such as hyphenation).

Sana - we need the quote for the task "someone is described as hard headed or bull headed" if you can put that in.

Sure thing! I cannot believe you have been awake so late Christina! But thanks for doing so much.

and ty Sana. great information

great! I am picking up some veggies and will request soon as I get home if it's not done already

Sana - I see that R(1,3,4,5) is underlined on the tasks, which would be idea. Although its hard to say for sure if / when we'll get Minataur. I believe we could complete hydra if we use Ship of Magic for It, or if we use Megan's 800 page book and CB's tagged adventure book Forged in Blood. But there are also preferred tasks underlined for CB's tasks. So....I'm afraid to do anything because I suspect Ushashi and Christina have looked at this a lot more than I have, and have some kind of master plan. Either way, it won't be long til we get these monsters!

I'm home now and will take a look to see if we can complete Hydra.

Really great job team with those banked + read books - lots of monsters have died today :)

I'm sure you ladies are way ahead of me - but Sana's Horseman book (on T90) also works for #9 in series (T125).

Then I think we have completed unused L books to cover the rest. But, as I said, I'm sure you know that :)

Awesome!

I got the rope book done - and yay Ushashi I see you finished the other. Maybe the sirens will stay dead this time.

I finished my book for the Lion! I was so close to being done with that one that I figured I may as well complete it first. I'll finish my Agatha Christie as soon as I pick up the granddaughter from theater camp.

Oh fantastic Zuza! I'll get this book done asap. I guess the sirens called me :) But it'll be done today for sure.

I maybe see lightning in the cloud above the C. For sure it has fire.

Ushashi wrote: "This is my favorite Christie. Good thing your cover has this. My version looks so different."

Yes! I have an old paperback, but this is the newer kindle cover and my library has it available on kindle - so yay! I just checked it out a few minutes ago. And honestly I'd rather read it with my kindle anyway - so easy to carry around.

Oh and I didn't hide the finished sirens task and books again - sorry! I'm too afraid of messing something up :)

I will re-read .
